INEC To Employ 10,000 Adhoc Staff From BUK

The Independent Electoral Commission (INEC) on Wednesday presented 10,000 forms to the Vice Chancellor, Bayero University of Kano State, Professor Sagir Adamu Abbas for recruitment of Adhoc staff ahead of the 2023 general elections.

GoldenNewsNg reports that Alhaji Lawal Dakin Sauri, Director of General Administration and procurement, INEC who presented the application forms said interested members of the academic community wishing to be engaged as Adhoc staff in the 2023 General election can apply.

Sauri explained that “the forms are for both academic and non-teaching staff as well as students who may wish to participate in the elections exercise.”

He, therefore, tasked interested persons to “apply online and thereafter come over for the collection of the hard copy application forms.”

Mr Sauri who was accompanied by top management staff, however, stressed that “Only those who apply online will be considered”.

In his speech shortly after the presentation, the VC, Professor Sagir Adamu Abbas, commended INEC for considering BUK as “a worthy partner.”

He assured that “the management will make the forms available to any interested persons and will make sure that such persons are recruited for the INEC exercise.”

Already, Professor Sagir Adamu Abbas has directed that a general circular be publicised calling for interested persons to come forward for the collection of the forms.
